One-pilot Operation
Barin1 - Okay I guess that makes sense of it - it was a quote from the first page of the thread, and had me VERY surprised! (reminded me of the days when the Trident haad a "FE Seat and panel" added to the design to keep BALPA happy (and more eyes on the deck)

So, 3-crew on a 767? I haven't been in the Office of a 76, but I would have thought there was only 2 pilot's seats and a jump seat - what is the designation of the 3rd person there? P3? Like the Tridents? (but without the FE's instrumentation)

and I'm unlikely to ever get a "jump seat" in a 767 now, since the regs (probably rightly) introduced since "9-11". Last time I was "up front" was in a 'Bus BAH-LHR when the Capt allowed me to see what a "glass cockpit" looked like, back a few years, on my way to a GatBash - oh for the old days of flying
